Community Alliance and Action Network

Mission: 
<b>Our mission is to build community and personal alliances to alleviate the effects of discrimination due to sexual orientation and/or gender identification</b>

Our Goals: 

  • Hosting
    a community center (68 N. Chicago St. in downtown Joliet) where people
    can come together based on a common background based on sexual
    orientation and/or gender identification. Check our latest hours.
  • Providing programs, activities, and entertainments that educate and celebrate our community and our diversity. Check out our calendar of events and programs, and our news page for special notices, often.
  • Educating
    the LGBTQ community and the traditional community about issues
    impacting the lives of people with a differing sexual orientation or
    gender identification.
  • Advocating for those who are victims of discrimination because of their sexual orientation or gender identification.
  • Creating connections with myriad groups in Northern Illinois working toward similar goals.
  • Making the Northern Illinois LGBTQ community more visible in a positive, proactive way.
